Hi I know that this thread isnt active anymore but I wanted to post in hope that someone like my self comes across it. My great-great grand parents were also a James Ryan and a Henrietta O'brien from the Long Ground area of Montserrat. They had 9 children but I only know of 2 at the moment, a Roana Ryan and my great grandmother Margaret Ryan. Thankfully she is still alive (at 104!) and her mind is still sharp and she still gets around on her own so I have reached out to get more information while I still can. I was hoping to also do her DNA but I'm not sure she will go for it. If anyone has information on the Ryan family from Montserrat please let me know 2016-10-24 06:49:03ZChan_cjhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/32.1.1.2.1/mb.ashxRe: CHAMBERS, HOWE, WEST, RYAN, JOHNSON &amp; GRIFFIN (was: Montserrat census reports)http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/248.2.2.1.1/mb.ashx
Hi, <br><br>I'm not sure its the same family of Ryan's but my grandmother's name was Rosalind Ryan (she took her mothers maiden name). Her mother is Margaret Ryan (born 1911) and her parents were James and Henrietta Ryan (they had 9 children but I dont know the names, I have reached out to my great grandmother to ask her).

Hi All, <br><br>I am trying to trace my mothers side of my family tree. Both my grandparents were from Montserrat. My Grandmothers maiden name was Ryan. Ryan was her mother's name - but her fathers name was Edmund Greer (died around 1984). My great grandparents were from Long Ground. I also know that my great grandmothers parents names were James and Henrietta Ryan and they had 9 children.<br>My Grandad is a Gerald, hes is from Cudjoe head. His father was Nathaniel Gerald (also referred to as captain) and his mother Ann Francis Molyneaux - or possibly Francis Ann (apparently Francis Molyneaux mothers name was Sarah Molyneaux - maiden name unknown). My Grandad siblings were called : Caroline, Horris, Lou, Benjamin, Nellie, Ca, Stanley &amp; Anite (Twins). However my Great Grandfather apprently had 20+ children - I am unsure of the names.<br>Im sorry If I have overloaded and confused you with all the information but I want to give as much information as possible.

Bett Greer of Montserrat was connected with the family of Frederick Driver, who worked for the lime company at the turn of the 20th century. When his son John was sent back to England for his education, Bett accompanied him and lived in England for the rest of her life. She died in Leicester in 1982.<br>I hope this information is useful to someone, but would also love to hear from anyone who knows more about Bett Greer or Frederick Driver.2015-09-03 07:57:30Zafleming134http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/241.3.1.1.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Would like to know my rootshttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/60.1/mb.ashx
There are lots of Jeffers in Montserrat so this will be hard. My late grandfather Joseph Richard Samuel Jeffers is the the son of one man who allegedly had 25 - 50, depending on the telling, children. Apparently his wife had about ten children, then she became "sick" in a coma and he had these pocket families all around the island of 2-4 children with different women. He was a foreman for some of the estates, so he was better off financially than most. I have read the info I'm sharing in my great grandfather's obituary somewhere. I need to put my hands on it again.2015-06-13 02:37:46Zwendellwhitechttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/60.1/mb.ashxRe: Daway and Skerrett Familieshttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/267.2/mb.ashx

Hi D,<br> Thanks for getting back to me. It looks like Susannah and Sabina are the same person. I will adjust my tree accordingly. Thanks for the help.<br>I have a family "list" prepared by a cousin of my father. It includes the children and descendants of Patrick Boatswain (Timothy's father.) Using it I was able to locate most of Timothy's offspring who immigrated to the U.S. Emily is on my tree as is Williams (real name Uriah, although everyone referred to him as Uncle Willie.) You are correct, as far as I know he never married or had children. <br>I have two people who represent big question marks. There is a Hartie Mona listed who I cannot find any other documentation on. She appears to have had a child named Len. This may have been my father's cousin Leonard who I remember since he lived in New York.<br>The other mystery is a female named Mary Maria. She came to the U.S in about 1921 and died in an auto accident a few months later. Her immigration records list her father as Timothy Boatswain, but she is not listed on the family "list" so I cannot confirm who she was. She is definitely not the same person as Mary Matilda who was called Aunt Mattie. She lived in New York and died about 1965<br>I would love any photos and certificates that you have. My email is <a href="mailto://dethompson451@gmail.com">dethompson451@gmail.com</a>. By all means, include pix of your family also.<br><br>Diana2015-04-09 19:26:24Zdthompson451http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/240.1.1.2.1.2.1.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Boatswain, Riley, Meade, Daly, West families of Montserrathttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/240.1.1.2.1.2.1.1/mb.ashx
Hi Diana,<br><br>Thanks for your response. I’ve been trying to gather as much information I can from my relatives in the UK to help. I don’t have a tree on ancestry and I’ve not taken the DNA test.<br><br>Re your question Susannah/Sabina, I can confirm that my father always referred to her as Susannah Sabina as being her full name. I’ve checked your family tree, but wanted to check if you are aware of Emily and William Boatswain, children of Timothy and Sabina? My understanding is that William migrated to the US and neither married or had Children.<br><br>Do you have any photos of Timothy Boatswain? Because I have one. <br><br>I was in Montserrat for St Patricks this year and spent a lot of hours at the records office, which is all paper based. If you’ve got approximate dates and know which area the event occurred (birth, death or marriage) you can obtain information. The only drawback is that a lot of the registry books before 1888 have deteriorated and you may not be allowed to access them. Sadly a lot of the records are stored in a container not suitable for fragile documents, but was a temporary measure after the volcano. It cost 25 EC Dollars to search the records and 50 EC Dollars for any duplicate certificates you request.<br><br>If you send me your e-mail address I’ll send you copies of the certificates and the photo I’ve got, if you want. <br><br>D <br>2015-04-09 18:57:47Zbvjackson1http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/240.1.1.2.1.2.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Boatswain, Riley, Meade, Daly, West families of Montserrathttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/240.1.1.2.1.2.1/mb.ashx
Hi D Jackson,<br>Welcome! Happy to hear from you. I am another gr-grandchild of Timothy Boatswain. There are several of us on Facebook. Check out Boatswain Connection. Or send me your email address and I'll see if I can add you. Do you have a tree on Ancestry? Have you taken the DNA test - here or elsewhere?<br><br>If you have the death certificates of Timothy and Sabina, that is wonderful. What a great historical find! Would you mind sharing that with the rest of us? <br><br>I have always had a question: Timothy had at least ten children and most of them eventually came to the U.S. I have most of their immigration or naturalization records. BUT some of them named their mother as Sabina Daly and others named their mother as Susannah Daley. I have always wondered if this was the same person (name and nickname.) Or if there was more than one woman involved. What are your thoughts?<br><br>Also, how difficult was it to obtain records on Montserrat? I have been considering going there to do some hands on research myself.<br><br>If you have not already seen it, I have a tree on Ancestry. Boatswain/West Family Tree. It is public so anyone can view it. <br><br>Diana2015-04-08 00:26:45Zdthompson451http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/240.1.1.2.1.2.1/mb.ashxRe: Boatswain, Riley, Meade, Daly, West families of Montserrathttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/240.1.1.2.1.2/mb.ashx
Hi<br><br>I have been researching my family tree and I believe you may be able to help. <br><br>Timothy Boatswain was my paternal great-grandfather as his daughter Martha Boatswain had a child in Montserrat, Patrick White, before emigrating to the US in 1923.

Hi Andrea.....Yes there are quite a few of us that are descendants of Patrick and Sita! If your grandmom Margaret was the one that prepared the Boatswain family list, we are all very grateful. <br><br>I don't know the history of slavery in our family, but it stands to reason that it existed. The British government did not abolish slavery on the Caribbean Islands until the 1830s.<br><br>We have a facebook page if you would like to join. Look for the Boatswain Connection.

Like I said i dont know how true this all is but I am intrigued and would like to get some more information about people and ethnicity.<br><br>Many Thanks <br>Lauren <br><br><a href="mailto://laurenfennell@live.co.uk">laurenfennell@live.co.uk</a><br>2014-08-30 00:29:34Zxlaurenfxhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/277/mb.ashxRe: Hogan familyhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/79.3/mb.ashx

Hi Rosslyn, I am a descendant from the Farrell's in Montserrat. I don't know much about my history but would like to. My mom just passed away. Her name was Adelia Farrell but was known as "Sally" growing up in Montserrat then moved to Canada. Her mother's name was Ann Farrell but she died suddenly when my mom was really young in the 1940s. Would love to know if there's any connection.<br>Sharon Farrell2014-05-20 01:46:58Zsa_farrell76http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/102.1.1.1.1.1.4/mb.ashxRe: Gerald familyhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/261.1/mb.ashx

My father's name was Alberto Heliodoro O'Farrill. He was born in Cuba in 1899. His mother's maiden name was Gavito. This is all the information I have, but would be interested in knowing if you have any relatives named Gavito in your list of Cuban descendants. . I had not seen or heard from my father since 1945. Alberto O'Farrill was in Spanish film, he also was an author, a playwrite, professional dancer, etc. He went to New York in 1920 and worked at the Apollo Theatre in Spanish Harlem. At some point he returned to Cuba and went back to New York in 1935. 2014-02-17 20:29:01Zluciaofarrillhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/16.8.16/mb.ashxsearching for family IrIsh and family martin &amp; montserathttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/276/mb.ashx

Still looking on information re: Francis Xavier O'Farril and Carmen Lugo y Camacho. I found out that my grandfather was born in Cork County Ireland when his Puerto Rican parents went there as my great grandfather was a Merchant Marine. When they filed his birth certificate in Ireland, someone saw the name they wrote was "O'Farril" and changed it to the more Irish version "O'Farrell". My grandfather's line is the only Puerto Rican line with the name spelled "O'Farrell". Our family in Puerto Rico spells it "O'Farril". So, my grandfather's name in the census is actually named "Gregorio Francisco O'Farrell. Jr." My grandfather states this is incorrect. His whole life, he has been "Francisco O'Farrell, Jr." Can anyone help me? I believe we are descendants of Don Ricardo O'Farril, but I'm having a hard time making the connection. I would also like to find proof of my grandfather's birth in Ireland. ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated. My grandparents are in their 80's and I would like to get this done soon. 2013-06-25 15:17:01Znaomimathis60http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.bvi.montserrat/16.8.11.1/mb.ashx
